Storm Damage Roof Inspection in Fort Worth, TX: Vents, Shingles and Seals Checked

Roof overview at the start of a storm damage inspection in Fort Worth, TX

Every chalk mark on this roof is a problem the homeowner can now see. On a second Fort Worth roof this week, our inspector walked each slope, marked damaged shingles and roof vents in chalk, and checked whether the eave shingles were still sealed down.

The roof, slope by slope

Wide shots from the ridge put every slope on record before we work in close.

Roof vents

Box vents and turbine vents take a beating in DFW storms. Damaged vents get an X in chalk and a close-up photo.

Damaged shingles marked

Each damaged shingle is marked where it sits, including along the eaves and gutter line, so nothing gets lost between the roof and the report.

Seal check at the eave

We lift the edge of the shingles by hand to see if the seal strip is still holding. Unsealed shingles are what wind peels off next.
